'Ramayana' breaks Shah Rukh Khan's film record, yet to take the number 1 crown

New Delhi: Ranbir Kapoor's film 'Ramayana' is breaking new records at the box office every day. Last Saturday (November 7), Namit Malhotra's 'Ramayana' collected a worldwide gross of ₹151 crore 77 lakh. This was the highest single day collection of the film since its release.

This figure has placed 'Ramayana' at the fourth position in the list of Bollywood's top highest grossing films in a single day. Made at a cost of approximately ₹4 thousand crore, this film has achieved this position by surpassing Shahrukh Khan's 'Jawaan'.

Ramayana breaks Jawan's record

Shah Rukh Khan's "Jawaan," released in 2023, had a worldwide gross of ₹144.22 million on its third day of release. Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi's "Ramayana" surpassed this film with a single-day worldwide collection of ₹151.77 million. Now, the question that might be arising in your mind is, if Ramayan, coming in at number four, has pushed Shah Rukh Khan's "Jawaan" to number five, then which films are in the top three? The answer is interesting, all the top three positions are held by the same film.

Which films are in the top 3?

'Dhurandhar - The Revenge', released this year at the box office, is at the top of this list with earnings of Rs 184 crore 17 lakh (fourth day). 'Dhurandhar 2' is also at the second position. It earned Rs 181 crore 06 lakh on the third day after its release. The same film is at the third position with earnings of Rs 152 crore 65 lakh on the first day after its release. Now Ramayan has achieved the fourth position with a business of Rs 155 crore 77 lakh. It remains to be seen whether Ramayan will be able to achieve any position among the top 3.

Ramayan's earnings till day 5

Speaking of Ramayan's earnings so far, the film, which was released on November 5th, has already grossed ₹343.83 billion at the Indian box office. Net collections have reached ₹288.54 billion. Although the film was released before Diwali, trade experts believe its real magic will unfold during the post-Diwali holidays. So, it remains to be seen what records this film will break in the coming days.
